Needler is a Decepticon Action Master partner from the toyline portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Needler is the green one...

Needler is the mechanoid partner to Bombshell, who uses his pincers and flamethrowers to destroy anything Bombshell doesn't mind-warp first.

Fiction

Dreamwave Generation One continuity

He's just friendly.

Bombshell used a type of cerebro-shell patterned on Needler. Infestation

This shell probably does not represent Needler him/itself. Needler's connection to cerebro-shell technology (if any) is unknown but can likely be attributed to Dreamwave's rampant use of Easter eggs.

Toys

Generation 1

  • Bombshell with Needler (Action Master, 1991)
Needler is a robotic scarab who was only sold with the Action Master version of Bombshell, available only in the European markets. He can plug into Bombshell's back, and pressing a trigger flips his head up and over Bombshell's, forming a battle mask of sorts.
